"Should not, your third uncle is not that stupid?"
Although Aunt Mei answered like this, she couldn't help but stare at Mei Lao San, "Hurry up and tell me clearly, what are you doing by borrowing 500 yuan from someone from China? Are you really cheated... or you Going to the entrance of the village to gamble again?"
Speaking of gambling, Aunt Mei is really worried!
In the past, Mei Lao San had this bad problem. He earned the work points for a hard day. He could play cards at night and he lost all... To say that Mei Lao San is also a strong laborer, who has worked so hard to pay for it in a year. How much food can be placed, but his family has worked hard for a year, and still owes the production team's work points.
This time Mei Lao San borrowed so much money from his brother, shouldn't he really gamble again? During the recent period, Mei Laosan always throws out his chopsticks after dinner, saying that he is going out to eat, but one night he will not come back until midnight
Thinking of this, Aunt Mei's face changed, "Lao San, did you really borrow money to gamble?"
Mei Lao San said haha, "If there is nothing, you can just think about it."
"Sanniang, don't be angry. My third uncle said that he didn't have any money to gamble... Since my third uncle is not borrowing money for a happy event, then my mother will open her mouth... Now my seventh uncle is also following my dad. Yes, my seventh uncle should know the situation best. This time my dad’s project, he only gave half of the material money every month, and half of the money was given every month, and the remaining half could not be settled until the completion of the project... I Dad is in a hurry now, there is no money to buy materials. I think if the third uncle is not in a hurry, I will pay back the five hundred dollars lent to my dad first. Five hundred yuan is not a small amount, and my dad can’t get in. Little material."
Aunt Mei's family immediately reached out and asked Mei San for money, "Where's the money? How about you borrowing the five hundred dollars?"
The old lady of Mei was anxious to wince with his wife, "I have saved the money."
"Then I guess San Uncle put the money in the bank? If that's the case, please have a stub, take it out and let my mother take it back first."
At that time, the banking system was not perfect. When withdrawing money, it was obtained by voucher. No matter who got the deposit, he could redeem it. Unlike later generations... you have to sign and verify your identity to cash out.
Mei Lao San let out a dry cough, "It's so late now, even if you deposit the ticket, you won't be able to get it.
Yes, let's wait for tomorrow... Let's talk about it tomorrow. "
"That won't work, my dad is anxious to spend money now, how can I drag it tomorrow? You can afford it, but my dad can't afford it!"
Aunt Mei also said, "If you want to save the money, just take out the stub or the stub. It will not be easy for Mingyun and Ranran to run this trip. If it weren't for you, they wouldn't have to run. Such a trip."
The old three of Mei falter, and after the three men and women sternly questioned, they finally told where the money was going!
It was exactly the same as Aunt Mei had guessed. He took the money out and gambled. At the beginning, he has a lot of money, and he can withstand winning or losing... But there is a saying that people are stupid and have a lot of money. If there is more money, people will be stupid! Mei Laosan didn't care about winning or losing, so he caught the attention of the dealer. Let him win a few times and give him some sweetness. When he became addicted, he would directly come to a big one. The dealer won Mei Lao San 40 or 50 yuan for the first time fishing. He was distressed to Mei Lao San. He did not dare to say anything. He was angry and anxious in his heart. The next night he wanted to make a copy. , And lost more than 30 more.
Gamblers have this kind of mentality. The more anxious they lose, the more anxious they lose. At first, the dealer used fishing methods. Later, they didn't use any methods. Mei Lao San still lost the same way... He wanted to bet to win every time. He has to play in the middle of the night if he has a lot of bets. He has to play until after nine o'clock every time, and he goes home after the dealer strikes.
After half a month, he had almost lost five hundred yuan, and now all the money he has on him is less than fifty yuan.
Aunt Mei San collapsed when she heard it, and went up to kick and beat Mei San in anger, "God! You actually lost five hundred yuan, Mei San, I can't live with you anymore. "
"Sanniang, don't be angry. Gambling is illegal. Let's go to the police station to report the case. My third uncle will testify. Maybe we can still get the lost money back..."
The folk customs of that era were simple, and people who caught gambling would have to go to jail, and basically no one played it. However, all players were sneaky and only dared to play in private. If Mr. Mei** proves, it is very possible to get the money back...
"Ran Ran is right, the third child, let's report the crime now!"
"Report what the case? You are not afraid to report the case. People have arrested your man?"
Speaking of Jing Gong, Mei Laosan
I was persuaded, but he was involved in gambling, and it was impossible to report the crime even if he himself was sent to jail, he would not do it.
"San Bo, this matter must be resolved by the police station, otherwise there are more people deceived at Toadgou... If you are afraid that the report will hurt you... Then you should call out all the people who gamble at the village, and we will report to the police station together. There is a saying that the law does not blame the public. As long as there are more people reporting the case, the police station will not deal with you. It will definitely deal with the dealer."
Mei Laosan thought, this is not impossible. After all, he lost so much money, and he felt very distressed
Moreover, during this period of time, there are more people participating in gambling, and he is not alone in the game. His eldest brother, fifth and sixth brothers also participated... However, they are all from the same village, and they really want to give them to others. Go to the prison
Mei Laosan thought of this, but couldn't make up his mind again.
"Lao Mei, if you don't want to report the crime, then I can go. I will tell my mother about this now!"
Aunt Liu was a widow for many years before pulling these seven sons into adulthood. The sons did not say anything but were really filial. Hearing what my wife said, Elder Mei was anxious, "Don't tell my mother about this. If you let our mother know, you won't be pissed off!"
"You know now that you are afraid? Then when you borrowed money from Zhonghua, when you lost the bet, why didn't you think of your old mother?"
Aunt Mei San became more and more angry, and rushed up to bite Mei San's mouth again. If it weren't for Li Mingyun's damsel, the meat on Mei San's shoulder would have to be bitten off by his wife!
"Don't say anything, I will go to the boss and the sixth now, and we will report the case to the police station now!"
Mei Laosan was also out of luck. He really didn't want to offend people... But he lost hundreds of dollars. That was hundreds of yuan. In the countryside, he can afford two houses and export them all. , His heart is not strong either.
After the police station received the report, the police went out overnight and gave the Toadgou Underground Casino to Lianwo Duan... When he rushed away, the dealer was shaking the dice, but the police went up and took the dice, and immediately followed by another hand. Just copy it up!
A group of gamblers ran away in fright, but the policemen who came out of the police had surrounded the house long ago. They came out and caught one, and two came out and caught a pair. They didn't let one pass, and all caught them.
